, p. 1048 - 1051 (2016)
A visible light-mediated difluoromethylation of N-benzylacrylamides with HCF2SO2Cl as the HCF2 radical precursor is described. The reaction incorporates a tandem cyclization/dearomatization process to afford various difluoromethylated 2-azaspiro[4.5]deca-6,9-diene-3,8-diones bearing adjacent quaternary stereocenters under mild conditions in moderate to excellent yields.

Fluoroalkylsulfonyl chlorides, RfSO2Cl, in which Rf=CF3, C4F9, CF2H, CH2F, and CH2CF3, are used as a source of fluorinated radicals to add fluoroalkyl groups to electron-deficient, unsaturated carbonyl compounds. Photochemical conditions, using Cu mediation, are used to produce the respective α-chloro-β-fluoroalkylcarbonyl products in excellent yields through an atom transfer radical addition (ATRA) process. Facile nucleophilic replacement of the α-chloro substituent is shown to lead to further diverse functionalization of the products.

Using visible-light photoredox conditions, difluoromethylation and 1,1-difluoroalkylation of biphenyl isocyanides have allowed the synthesis of a series of 6-(difluoromethyl)- and 6-(1,1-difluoroalkyl)phenanthridines via tandem addition/cyclization/oxidation processes. The reactions are carried out in wet dioxane at room temperature using fac-Ir(ppy)3 as catalyst to form a large variety of substituted phenanthridine products in good to excellent yield.

Photoredox-catalyzed reductive difluoromethylation of electron-deficient alkenes was achieved in one step under tin-free, mild and neutral conditions. This protocol affords a facile method to introduce RCF2 (R=H, Ph, Me, and CH2N3) groups at sites β to electron-withdrawing groups. It was found that TTMS (tris(trimethylsilyl)silane) served nicely as both the H-atom donor and the electron donor in the catalytic cycle. Experimental and DFT computational results provided evidence that RCF2 (R=H, Ph, Me) radicals are nucleophilic in nature.

Fluorinated radicals were generated from RfSO2Cl by photoredox catalysis under mild conditions, where Rf = n-C4F9, CF3, CF2H, CH2F, CH2CF3, and CF2CO2Me. This method provided a general way to construct fluorinated 2-oxindoles from reaction with N-arylacrylamides via a proposed tandem radical cyclization process.

, p. 222 - 224 (2007/10/03)
Preparation of the key intermediate carboxydifluoromethanesulfonamide provides direct synthetic access to a wide range of novel difluoromethanesulfonamides, including the acetazolamide analogue (2-ethanoylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazol-5-yl)-difluoromethanesulfonamide. Their water solubility and stability, ether partition coefficient, pK, and submicromolar dissociation constants for human carbonic anhydrase isozyme II (HCA II) make them promising candidates for topical glaucoma therapy.
